REGARDLESS OF WHAT Bill Gates might have claimed in interviews, a lot of the goodies in Vista have – I’ll be diplomatic – drawn inspiration from rival products, primarily Apple’s Mac OS X. The trouble is that Microsoft has prioritised the wrong bits, taken the wrong inspiration.
And the sad irony is that if it had made different choices, we’d have got a simpler, faster, safer Vista a lot sooner. So what sources and where has MS got its ideas from?

Apple’s iPhone will likely see positive acceptance when the device ships in June, according to research firm Goldman Sachs. Goldman points to a recent handset branding survey that was conducted in China, India, the U.K. and the U.S. as evidence that Apple’s new gadget might yield positive results for the Cupertino-based company. Despite the fact that the survey took place before iPhone was debuted at Macworld in January, the number of potential iPhone buyers is equivalent to 75 percent of the installed base of current iPod owners, according to SeekingAlpha.
